Abstract

This paper focuses on the teaching of poetry, particularly in the English Department. The purpose of teaching Poetry in Indonesia is to enable the students to understand Prosody and to be able to appreciate and to analyse poems. Considering that in some universities students will no longer be required to write a thesis, there must be a substitute for the elimination of the obligation to write a thesis. It is suggested that upon graduation, a literary student majoring in poetry, besides having fulfilled the other requirements, should have composed at least 5 poems of his or her own. Although the students’ receptive ability should be maintained, the lecturer should emphasize more on their creative or productive abilites.
